mrmacey,
Hey guy sorry to hear the trip didn't go well. I had checked out the forecast Sat evening and it didn't look good. My rule of thumb with forecast is 1-3" seas I will typically take a shot and head out. 2-4' seas I usually won't.

I am wondering if the fish you were marking 100' down were tuna?

I spent the day fishing around the C-town breachway which had great bluefish action. But didn't see any bass. Headed back in about 9:00 and found smaller bass in PJ Pond chasing bait. There are some big bass in the pond right now hanging in the channel on the bottom. I will drift them some eels tomorrow night....
